Abstract
Mechanical breaking of giant cells of the peripheral layer of Actinidia chinensis fruits produces in the extraction juice, many large vesicles that appear like free vacuoles or protoplasts (Chedhomme and Rona, 1984). The latter are of a much smaller size than the initial cells; these pseudoprotoplasts are always devoid of nuclei as in the case with “vacuoplasts” of Poterioochromonas malhamensis (Jochem et al., 1983).
